The Marlin Papoose

A classic of bipedal travel.

The Marlin Papoose is lightweight, accurate - and damn handy. Plus the wood stock tends to scream "sportsman" or rabbit hunter, thus calming the locals who would otherwise be alarmed at the look of the AR-7 (the Papoose's James Bond cousin).

Though it is much more exciting to mount some sort of Ruger 10-22/Gatling-hybrid to the ole handlebars, having something to stow away in the pannier packs is to be preferred for general travel.
